Large-Scale Heat-Tolerance Screening and Genetic Diversity of Pea (Pisum sativum L.) Germplasms. PLANTS 2022; 11:plants11192473. [PMID: 36235339 PMCID: PMC9573610 DOI: 10.3390/plants11192473] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/12/2022] [Revised: 09/11/2022] [Accepted: 09/17/2022] [Indexed: 11/22/2022]
Abstract
Pea (Pisum sativum L.) is an important legume crop. However, the yield of pea is adversely affected by heat stress in China. In this study, heat-tolerant germplasms were screened and evaluated in the field under multi-conditions. The results showed that heat stress could significantly affect pea yield. On the basis of grain weight per plant, 257 heat-tolerant and 175 heat-sensitive accessions were obtained from the first year’s screening, and 26 extremely heat-tolerant and 19 extremely heat-sensitive accessions were finally obtained in this study. Based on SNaPshot technology, two sets of SNP markers, including 46 neutral and 20 heat-tolerance-related markers, were used to evaluate the genetic diversity and population genetic structure of the 432 pea accessions obtained from the first year’s screening. Genetic diversity analysis showed that the average polymorphic information content was lower using heat-tolerance-related markers than neutral markers because of the selective pressure under heat stress. In addition, population genetic structure analysis showed that neutral markers divided the 432 pea accessions into two subpopulations associated with sowing date type and geographical origin, while the heat-tolerance-related markers divided these germplasms into two subpopulations associated with heat tolerance and sowing date type. Overall, we present a comprehensive resource of heat-tolerant and heat-sensitive pea accessions through heat-tolerance screenings in multi-conditions, which could help genetic improvements of pea in the future.

Broadening the Applicability of a Custom Multi-Platform Panel of Microhaplotypes: Bio-Geographical Ancestry Inference and Expanded Reference Data. Front Genet 2020; 11:581041. [PMID: 33193704 PMCID: PMC7606911 DOI: 10.3389/fgene.2020.581041] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/07/2020] [Accepted: 09/25/2020] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
The development of microhaplotype (MH) panels for massively parallel sequencing (MPS) platforms is gaining increasing relevance for forensic analysis. Here, we expand the applicability of a 102 autosomal and 11 X-chromosome panel of MHs, previously validated with both MiSeq and Ion S5 MPS platforms and designed for identification purposes. We have broadened reference population data for identification purposes, including data from 240 HGDP-CEPH individuals of native populations from North Africa, the Middle East, Oceania and America. Using the enhanced population data, the panel was evaluated as a marker set for bio-geographical ancestry (BGA) inference, providing a clear differentiation of the five main continental groups of Africa, Europe, East Asia, Native America, and Oceania. An informative degree of differentiation was also achieved for the population variation encompassing North Africa, Middle East, Europe, South Asia, and East Asia. In addition, we explored the potential for individual BGA inference from simple mixed DNA, by simulation of mixed profiles followed by deconvolution of mixture components.

Abstract
Thermo Fisher Scientific released the Precision ID Ancestry Panel, a 165-single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) panel for ancestry prediction that was initially compatible with the manufacturer's massively parallel sequencer, the Ion Torrent Personal Genome Machine (PGM). The semiautomated workflow using the panel with the PGM involved several time-consuming manual steps across three instruments, including making templating solutions and loading sequencing chips. In 2014, the manufacturer released the Ion Chef robot, followed by the Ion S5 massively parallel sequencer in late 2015. The robot performs the templating with reagent cartridges and loads the chips, thus creating a fully automated workflow across two instruments. The objective of the work reported here is to compare the performance of two massively parallel sequencing systems and ascertain if the change in the workflow produces different ancestry predictions. For performance comparison of the two systems, forensic-type samples (n = 16) were used to make libraries. Libraries were templated either with the Ion OneTouch 2 system (for the PGM) or on the Ion Chef robot (for the S5). Sequencing results indicated that the ion sphere particle performance metrics were similar for the two systems. The total coverages per SNP and SNP quality were both higher for the S5 system. Ancestry predictions were concordant for the mock forensic-type samples sequenced on both massively parallel sequencing systems. The results indicated that automating the workflow with the Ion Chef system reduced the labor involved and increased the sequencing quality.

Abstract
Microhaplotypes are a new promising type of forensic genetic marker. Without the interference of stutter and high mutation rates as for STRs, and with short amplification lengths and a higher degree of polymorphism than single SNP, microhaplotypes composed of two SNPs, SNP-SNP, have a strong application potential. Currently, the most common method to detect microhaplotypes is massive parallel sequencing. However, the cost and extensive use of instruments limit its wide application in forensic laboratories. In this study, we screened 23 new SNP-SNP loci and established a new detection method by combining a multiplex amplification refractory mutation system-based PCR (ARMS-PCR) and SNaPshot technology based on CE. First, we introduced an additional deliberate mismatch at the antepenultimate base from the 3' end of primers when designing ARMS-PCR for SNP 1 (the first SNP of the SNP-SNP). Then, single base extension primers for SNaPshot assay were designed next to the position of SNP 2 (the second SNP). Finally, 15 loci were successfully built into four panels and these loci showed a relatively high level of polymorphism in the Southwest Chinese Han population. All the loci had an average probability of informative genotypes (I value) of 0.319 and a combined discrimination power of 0.999999999. Therefore, this new detection system will provide a valuable supplement to current methods.

Abstract
With growing cancer morbidity, forensics cases in which archived tumour tissues can be used as biological samples are increasing, and an effective method to identify the body source of tumour tissues is needed. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) may be a promising biomarker to identify the source of tumour tissues because of their low mutation rate and small amplicon size. Next-generation sequencing techniques offers the ability to detect hundreds of SNPs in a single run. The Precision ID Identity Panel (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA) detects 90 autosomal SNPs for individual identification and 34 lineage-informative SNPs on Y chromosome using the Ion PGM system (Thermo Fisher Scientific). In this study, we evaluated performance of the panel for individual identification of tumour tissues. One hundred and fifty pairs of tumour tissues and corresponding normal tissues were analysed. Loss of heterozygosity was detected only in tumour tissues. The identity-by-state (IBS) scoring system was adopted to identify the body source of tumour tissues. The IBS score, as well as the number of loci with 2 alleles (A2), 1 allele (A1) and 0 alleles (A0) shared, were analysed within each tumour-normal pair, unrelated individual pairs, parent-offspring pairs and full-sibling pairs. According to the probability distribution, threshold of A2 in the range of 69 to 89 could achieve accuracy > 99% in identifying the source of tumour tissues. Thus, we developed a new strategy (process and criteria) to identify the source of tumour tissues that could be used in practice.

Abstract
Advances in nucleic acid sequencing and genotyping technologies have facilitated the discovery of an increasing number of single-nucleotide variations (SNVs) associated with disease onset, progression, and response to therapy. The reliable detection of such disease-specific SNVs can ensure timely and effective therapeutic action, enabling precision medicine. This has driven extensive efforts in recent years to develop novel methods for the fast and cost-effective analysis of targeted SNVs. In this Review, we highlight the most recent and significant advances made toward the development of such methodologies.

A set of 14 DIP-SNP markers to detect unbalanced DNA mixtures. Biochem Biophys Res Commun 2018; 497:591-596.

Abstract
Unbalanced DNA mixture is still a difficult problem for forensic practice. DIP-STRs are useful markers for detection of minor DNA but they are not widespread in the human genome and having long amplicons. In this study, we proposed a novel type of genetic marker, termed DIP-SNP. DIP-SNP refers to the combination of INDEL and SNP in less than 300bp length of human genome. The multiplex PCR and SNaPshot assay were established for 14 DIP-SNP markers in a Chinese Han population from Shanxi, China. This novel compound marker allows detection of the minor DNA contributor with sensitivity from 1:50 to 1:1000 in a DNA mixture of any gender with 1 ng-10 ng DNA template. Most of the DIP-SNP markers had a relatively high probability of informative alleles with an average I value of 0.33. In all, we proposed DIP-SNP as a novel kind of genetic marker for detection of minor contributor from unbalanced DNA mixture and established the detection method by associating the multiplex PCR and SNaPshot assay. DIP-SNP polymorphisms are promising markers for forensic or clinical mixture examination because they are shorter, widespread and higher sensitive.
